I stayed here in Jan 2026 and it was the most beautiful stay. From the moment I entered this property to the moment I left, everything was just wonderful. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was one of the best hotel rooms I have stayed in. Clean, stylish, spacious and the service here was always good.

Abbiamo soggiornato 4 giorni presso la struttura il cibo é stato davvero un plus, tutto il personale formato ed efficiente, pulizia nulla da dire, addirittura fanno un doppio intervento al giorno per ripristinare la camera, nulla da suggerire per migliorare, assolutamente consigliato per vivere un soggiorno curato attento e di gusto, grazie infinite a tutte le persone che rendono l’Alma resort un luogo dove passare le proprie vacanze e poter dire “sono stato in vacanza e nulla é andato storto “ complimenti per l’esempio di come dovrebbe essere una struttura ricettiva attenta, veramente complimenti!

Højeste niveau på alle fronter

Hotellet ligger virkelig roligt. Alt er veldesignet og væres værelse var virkelig stort og velindrettet og flot design. Maden er et kapitel for sig selv og det samme gælder personalets venlighed, service og involvering. Det oversteg langt vores forventninger. Gratis bådture med hotellets egen trimaran med lokal besætning.

Fint hotell härlig strand

Alma är ett mycket fint hotell med en lång fantastisk strand perfekt för promenader när det är lågvatten. Hotellet har en trimaran som man kan boka för en 1-2 h lång seglats ut mot reven för att snorkla. Det var en av veckans höjdpunkter. En dag tog vi taxi ner till BeZanzibar hotell och åt lunch, promenad hem på stranden. Det var 6km och en trevlig utflykt. Hotellet hjälpte oss även att boka en resa till Pungume Island eller snarare sandbanken bakom ön. Båtresan dit är ca 1 h över öppen sjö. Jämför med snorklingen utanför hotellet, mycket bättre. Därefter bjöd kaptenen på en lunch med grillade skaldjur, pommes och sallad, rekommenderas :-) Två dagar åt vi lunch på närbelägna Scooby Doo, rekommenderas Utrymme för förbättringar; serveringspersonalen var stundvis förvirrad och hade svårt att leverera det vi beställde.
